1. Fuel Gauge Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The fuel level sensor changes resistance based on fuel level and is wired to the Fuel Pump Driver Control Module. The Fuel Pump Driver Control Module sends the fuel level sensor reading to the Engine Control Module (ECM) via serial data. The ECM monitors the fuel level sensor signal in order to determine the fuel level. When the fuel tank is full, the resistances of the fuel level sensor is low and the ECM senses a low signal voltage on the signal circuit of the fuel level sensor. When the fuel tank is empty, the resistance of the fuel level sensor is high and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. The ECM uses the signal circuit of the fuel level sensor in order to calculate the percentage of remaining fuel in the tank. The ECM sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the body control module (BCM).

The BCM then sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the instrument cluster in order to control the fuel gauge. When the fuel level falls below approximately 11% the instrument cluster illuminates the low fuel level indicator.

1. Engine Oil Pressure Indicator Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The engine oil pressure sensor changes voltage based on the engine oil pressure. The engine oil pressure sensor is a 3-wire sensor comprising of the signal circuit, the low reference circuit and the 5 V reference circuit. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 V to the engine oil pressure sensor via the 5 V reference circuit and provides ground via the low reference circuit. The ECM monitors the signal circuit of the engine oil pressure sensor to determine if the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is within the normal operating range of approximately 1 - 4 V. When the engine oil pressure is high, the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is high and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. When the engine oil pressure is low, the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is low and the ECM senses a low signal voltage. The ECM sends the engine oil pressure information to the instrument cluster via serial data. The instrument cluster will illuminate or display the engine oil pressure indicator when the engine oil pressure is low.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The engine is running.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0521

  • The ECM detects that measured oil pressure is at least 47 kPa (6.8 psi) less than or 50 kPa (7.3 psi) higher than the predicted oil pressure.
  • The engine oil pressure is outside of a calculated working range determined by engine speed and temperature.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

P0522

  • The ECM detects that the engine oil pressure sensor signal circuit is less than 0.2 V.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

P0523

  • The ECM detects that the engine oil pressure sensor signal circuit is greater than 4.8 V.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  • The ECM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostics test fails. The ECM displays this information in the Failure Records on the scan tool.
  • The instrument cluster illuminates the engine oil pressure indicator.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

  • The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
  • The history DTC clears after 40 malfunction-free warm-up cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

DTC P0521 can set if engine oil pressure is outside the calculated engine oil pressure model stored in the engine control module. This can be an indication of improper engine oil level, poor engine oil condition, or mechanical engine issues causing lower than expected engine oil pressure.

1. DIC message Engine Oil Level Low always ON
2. DIC message Engine Oil Level Low always OFF

Typical Scan Tool Data

Engine Oil Level Switch

Displays and Gauges

Circuit/System Description

The engine oil level sensor/switch is normally-closed with proper engine oil level. The switch opens when the engine oil level drops below a calibrated level. The engine control module (ECM) monitors the engine oil level signal circuit when the ignition is ON, and the engine is OFF. With the switch in the closed position, the ECM detects a low voltage on the signal circuit. With the switch in the open position, the ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit. When high voltage is detected on the signal circuit, the ECM will send a serial data message to the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The IPC will then display a message on the driver information center (DIC) or illuminate a low engine oil level lamp.

The following information determines the message sent from the ECM to the IPC:

  • The Low Engine Oil Level message lamp is displayed only after the ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit for three consecutive ignition cycles, followed by an ignition OFF event from 15 minutes to greater than 50 minutes, depending on engine oil temperatures.
  • The Low Engine Oil Level message is turned OFF when the ECM detects a low voltage on the signal circuit after an ignition OFF event for greater than 90 seconds, followed by an ignition ON event for less than 1 second.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit for three consecutive ignition cycles, followed by an ignition OFF event from 15 minutes to greater than 50 minutes, depending on engine oil temperatures.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Diagnostic Fault Information

Displays and Gauges

1. Engine Oil Pressure Indicator Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The engine oil pressure sensor changes voltage based on the engine oil pressure. The engine oil pressure sensor is a 3-wire sensor comprising of the signal circuit, the low reference circuit and the 5 V reference circuit. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 V to the engine oil pressure sensor via the 5 V reference circuit and provides ground via the low reference circuit. The ECM monitors the signal circuit of the engine oil pressure sensor to determine if the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is within the normal operating range of approximately 1 - 4 V. When the engine oil pressure is high, the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is high and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. When the engine oil pressure is low, the engine oil pressure sensor voltage is low and the ECM senses a low signal voltage. The ECM sends the engine oil pressure information to the instrument cluster via serial data. The instrument cluster will illuminate or display the engine oil pressure indicator when the engine oil pressure is low.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The engine is running.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0521

  • The ECM detects that measured oil pressure is at least 47 kPa (6.8 psi) less than or 50 kPa (7.3 psi) higher than the predicted oil pressure.
  • The engine oil pressure is outside of a calculated working range determined by engine speed and temperature.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

P0522

  • The ECM detects that the engine oil pressure sensor signal circuit is less than 0.2 V.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

P0523

  • The ECM detects that the engine oil pressure sensor signal circuit is greater than 4.8 V.
  • The above condition is present for greater than 10 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  • The ECM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostics test fails. The ECM displays this information in the Failure Records on the scan tool.
  • The instrument cluster illuminates the engine oil pressure indicator.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

  • The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
  • The history DTC clears after 40 malfunction-free warm-up cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

DTC P0521 can set if engine oil pressure is outside the calculated engine oil pressure model stored in the engine control module. This can be an indication of improper engine oil level, poor engine oil condition, or mechanical engine issues causing lower than expected engine oil pressure.

1. Fuel Gauge Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The fuel level sensor changes resistance based on fuel level and is wired to the Fuel Pump Driver Control Module. The Fuel Pump Driver Control Module sends the fuel level sensor reading to the Engine Control Module (ECM) via serial data. The ECM monitors the fuel level sensor signal in order to determine the fuel level. When the fuel tank is full, the resistances of both fuel level sensors are low.

When the fuel tank is empty, the resistances of the fuel level sensors are high. The ECM uses the signal voltages of the primary fuel level sensor and the secondary fuel level sensor to calculate the percentage of remaining fuel in the tank. The ECM sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the body control module (BCM). The BCM then sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the instrument cluster to control the fuel gauge.

1. Fuel Gauge Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The fuel level sensor changes resistance based on fuel level and is wired to the Fuel Pump Driver Control Module. The Fuel Pump Driver Control Module sends the fuel level sensor reading to the Engine Control Module (ECM) via serial data. The ECM monitors the fuel level sensor signal in order to determine the fuel level. When the fuel tank is full, the resistances of the fuel level sensor is low and the ECM senses a low signal voltage on the signal circuit of the fuel level sensor. When the fuel tank is empty, the resistance of the fuel level sensor is high and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. The ECM uses the signal circuit of the fuel level sensor in order to calculate the percentage of remaining fuel in the tank. The ECM sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the body control module (BCM).

The BCM then sends the fuel level percentage via serial data to the instrument cluster in order to control the fuel gauge. When the fuel level falls below approximately 11% the instrument cluster illuminates the low fuel level indicator.

1. Head-Up Display Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The head-up display projects a full color image onto the windshield and is only viewable from the driver seat. The image location and brightness is adjustable using the head-up display switch. The image information is received from the instrument cluster through a video cable.

The head-up display is a slave device to the instrument cluster. The head-up display is powered through ignition voltage and ground. It communicates directly with instrument cluster via serial data and only has limited self-diagnosis capacity. Head-up display DTCs are reported through the Instrument Cluster.

The head-up display switch is a multiplexed switch that controls the head-up display based on driver inputs. The head-up display provides the switch with a low reference and monitors a signal circuit. The head-up display switch is made up of a resistor ladder and three switches: Dim +/-, Up/Down, and Page.

When a switch is pressed, the signal voltage is pulled low through the resistor ladder. When pressed, each of the switches will result in a different signal voltage seen by the head-up display, depending on the switch's location on the resistor ladder.

Typical Scan Tool Data

Engine Oil Level Switch

Displays and Gauges

Circuit/System Description

The engine oil level sensor/switch is normally-closed with proper engine oil level. The switch opens when the engine oil level drops below a calibrated level. The engine control module (ECM) monitors the engine oil level signal circuit when the ignition is ON, and the engine is OFF. With the switch in the closed position, the ECM detects a low voltage on the signal circuit. With the switch in the open position, the ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit. When high voltage is detected on the signal circuit, the ECM will send a serial data message to the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The IPC will then display a message on the driver information center (DIC) or illuminate a low engine oil level lamp.

The following information determines the message sent from the ECM to the IPC:

  • The Low Engine Oil Level message lamp is displayed only after the ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit for three consecutive ignition cycles, followed by an ignition OFF event from 15 minutes to greater than 50 minutes, depending on engine oil temperatures.
  • The Low Engine Oil Level message is turned OFF when the ECM detects a low voltage on the signal circuit after an ignition OFF event for greater than 90 seconds, followed by an ignition ON event for less than 1 second.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects a high voltage on the signal circuit for three consecutive ignition cycles, followed by an ignition OFF event from 15 minutes to greater than 50 minutes, depending on engine oil temperatures.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The BCM then sends the information via serial data to the instrument cluster to display the engine coolant temperature, fuel level, the engine speed, the vehicle speed and the distance travelled, either in kilometers or miles, based on the vehicle requirements. The instrument cluster will display dashes when its VIN does not match the VIN received from the BCM.

Diagnostic Aids

If the VIN mismatch is corrected the odometer will once again be displayed in the instrument cluster. If the vehicle is driven for a calibrated distance with a VIN mismatch, it will cause the instrument cluster odometer to enter into an error mode and lock itself. When this occurs the dashes will remain on the display even after correcting the VIN mismatch. The vehicle odometer status data display on the scan tool can be used to identify a locked odometer. The only way to unlock the instrument cluster (clear the dashes from the display) is to perform an SPS programming event. Failure to follow the diagnostic and programming procedures may result in either an improper odometer value or a module replacement.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON/Vehicle in Service Mode.

2. Verify no DTC is set.

  • If any DTC is set

Diagnose DTCs first. Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

  • Go to next step: If no DTCs are set

4. Verify the speedometer gauge value matches the scan tool Vehicle Speed parameter while driving the vehicle.

  • If the values do not match

Replace the P16 Instrument Cluster.

  • Go to next step: If the speedometer value matches the scan tool parameter

5. Verify the odometer display and the displayed distance counts up while driving the vehicle.

  • If the odometer displays only "----" (dashes)

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • If the odometer display does not count up

Replace the P16 Instrument Cluster.

  • Go to next step: If speedometer sweeps and displays the correct value, and the odometer display counts up

6. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

NOTE:

  • Circuit/System Verification must be performed before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
  • If there are multiple modules not original to the vehicle and they are used or incorrectly configured service parts, SPS may not be able to proper read or recover the vehicle odometer value. Follow government rules and documentation (including vehicle identification) regarding inaccurate/unknown odometer values.

Correcting VIN mismatch: Instrument Cluster is Showing "----" (Dashes), odometer is still unlocked
